Metamaterial-based Sensor Design Working in Infrared Frequency Range (2011)
Journal Article
La Spada, L., Bilotti, F., & Vegni, L. (2011). Metamaterial-based Sensor Design Working in Infrared Frequency Range. Progress in electromagnetics research B: PIER B, 34, 205-223. https://doi.org/10.2528/pierb11060303

In this paper, we propose the design of high sensitivity and selectivity metamaterial-based biosensors operating in the THz regime. The proposed sensors consist of planar array of resonant metallic structures, whose frequency response is modified thr...

In this study, a low-cost, compact, and high-performing metamaterial-based biosensor operating in the THz frequency range is presented. The sensor is designed to detect the presence of water content in biological matter by spectral absorption measure... Read More about Double CSRR for water content detection in biological matter.

Metamaterial resonator arrays for organic and inorganic compound sensing (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
La Spada, L., Bilotti, F., & Vegni, L. (2011, August). Metamaterial resonator arrays for organic and inorganic compound sensing. Presented at Photonics Prague 2011: the 7th International Conference on Photonics, Devices and Systems, Prague, Czech Republic

In this paper, an electromagnetic metamaterial resonator operating in the terahertz frequency range is presented. By arranging the resonator in a planar array, it is possible to use the structure as a sensing device for organic and inorganic compound...

Metamaterial-based design of biological sensors operating at THz frequencies (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
La Spada, L., Bilotti, F., & Vegni, L. (2011, October). Metamaterial-based design of biological sensors operating at THz frequencies

In this contribution, we present an omega-shaped electromagnetic resonator, which is of potential interest for THz biosensors. A new analytical model for such an inclusion-type is developed, considering the effects of the fringing capacitance. After...

Investigating the improvement of the localisation propensity and impact of the emergency vehicle sirens (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Boslem, S., Moore, D., & Charissis, V. (2011, April). Investigating the improvement of the localisation propensity and impact of the emergency vehicle sirens. Presented at SAE 2011 World Congress & Exhibition, Detroit

Rapid mobilization of emergency vehicles in the urban or rural road network presents a high probability of collisions and other related hazards to other drivers. Yet uninterrupted high speeds of the emergency vehicles through traffic are imperative f...
